Build, randomize, and drag seats in the seating chart maker.
Assignment workflow
Randomly assign guests to named tables without exceeding the capacity set for each table. Keep people, tables, default guests per table, and table capacities visible while you fill reception tables, then review the event table assignments.
For this case, set people, tables, default guests per table, and table capacities, then choose “Build seating chart.” Check the event table assignments before sharing or putting the result into use.
The Wedding/Event Seating Chart result still needs organizer review. Assignments are random and do not model households, conflicts, or VIP rules. The tool does not create a scaled venue floor plan.
Instructions
In Wedding/Event Seating Chart, start with people: paste one complete name per line; use any additional settings shown below the list.
Configure people, tables, default guests per table, and table capacities. Set how many guests each table can receive; use 0 to keep the default above.
Choose “Build seating chart.” The tool applies seating assignment rules and displays the event table assignments with any result notes.
Check the event table assignments against this limit: assignments are random and do not model households, conflicts, or VIP rules. If this Wedding/Event Seating Chart result fits the task, copy it, download a CSV, and print it.
Troubleshooting
When: Wedding/Event Seating Chart has no usable people, or an entry does not follow the format shown by that field.
Why: The tool needs valid people, tables, default guests per table, and table capacities to produce the event table assignments.
Try: In Wedding/Event Seating Chart, paste one complete name per line; use any additional settings shown below the list; then build seating chart again.
When: Assignments are random and do not model households, conflicts, or VIP rules.
Why: The tool evaluates people, tables, default guests per table, and table capacities, but it cannot assess context outside those controls.
Try: Check the event table assignments against this additional limit: the tool does not create a scaled venue floor plan. Revise the visible settings in Wedding/Event Seating Chart when needed.

The active inputs and event table assignments remain with the open task. Random 42 does not save Wedding/Event Seating Chart work as an online project; refreshing or closing the tool clears that active work.
